Aurum

Aurum is the third planet from the sun. It is orbited by twin moons, Sula and Nari, as known as the Ivory Twins.

Throughout most of its history, Aurum has been known in the ancient tongue of elves as Tethis-Kol, meaning the cradle of life. However, most scholars believe that the ancient elven civilization thought that the world was flat and fell off into the Underworld when you passed it’s edge. So perhaps cradle might be an incorrect translation.

Geography
Aurum is an Earth-sized planet that consisted of various continents and islands, including Korinth, Zarakev, and Fel-Istral in the central super-continent, and Margon, Taztica, and Beshkaba in the western region of the world. There was once a large mysterious continent in legend called Neskuul, however historians have found no evidence of such a place in all of history besides tales passed down from tribal elders.

 Continents 


 * Korinth: the westernmost portion of Aurum's super-continent. A diverse landscape ranging from arid deserts to tropical rainforests, it is also inhabited by numerous species including humans, elves, dwarves, and gnomes.
 * Zarakev: the northern portion of Aurum's super-continent. It is a desolate frigid wasteland where only those that can thrive in below freezing temperatures live. Many tales are told of Zarakev that equal a children's bedtime story, however most of these are unsubstantiated due to a lack of surviving witnesses.
 * Fel-Istral: the easternmost portion of Aurum's super-continent. It is a land steeped in rich history, where honor and bloodlines are put above all else. Devil worship is common practice, and some say the Lord of Shadow themselves rules this land.
 * Margon: a primitive island, most that live in this tropical island paradise are nothing more than tribal societies. However, tales are told of a mythical city of magic where every book ever written is housed.
 * Taztica: a mostly hot and arid environment where elementals rule over the land. Beware of the mirages, they will lead you to your doom.
 * Beshkaba: Hardly explored island, very little is known about it due to a population of fiercely violent elves.
